Mother's Day Pics with Memi

Here's a couple pics of the kids and us with Memi...

Mother's Day Pics 2011

For Mother's day, I wanted a few pics with my kiddos to celebrate my first Mother's day with our son AND daughter :) After church and before lunch...the kids weren't wanting to participate as well as I wanted but I still got a few fun pictures of the 3 of us.

Jefferson Pilgrammage

For Mother's Day, we loaded up to head to Jefferson to spend time with my Munner and Mom. We also got to visit with my Aunt Laura also. It was Pilgrammage in Jefferson which celebrates the history of Jefferson and some of the "locals" dress in period clothing. Aunt Laura was one of them!

We stopped outside the Excelsior to visit her and take some pictures:




Notice the "diva" and her sunglasses move :)

Chillin in the Bjorn

Dave emailed me these pics of him & sister (Alyssa)...they were out walking around looking at the new yard...

Don't you just love her "stunner" shades? :)

Follow up on dirt piles and our new yard...

We've been investing in our yard (which is LONG overdue!) to create a bigger yard and fun play area for the kids.

This has included building retaining walls that we filled in with the dirt piles revealed in earlier pictures. It took ten dump truck loads of dirt!

Next came pallets and pallets of grass (TEN pallets in fact!). We have had bulldozers, dump trucks and a semi-truck all visit our home and it is all finally coming along! Below are some of the latest pictures:

Next it's time for a fence, playset and we should be good to go!!!

Sillies Rolling Around

Andrew was always such a skinny baby. He was always in the 50% percentile at most and Alyssa has been a steady 95%!

So I love seeing her "rolls" when I'm changing her. The other day I was letting her sides air out from the AB monitor as it irritates her skin pretty badly. Here are few shots of her...

The flexible twins in action...

LOVE THESE KIDS!

That Guy Roger

The other day, Andrew was playing with his Lego's and made walkie talkies out of them. Playing along, I instructed him to say "10-4 Roger, over and out" and other silly CB talk.

A little while later I came in the family room and heard him talking on his Walkie Talkie.

Me: Who are you talking to, Monkey?
Andrew: You know...that guy, Roger!

LOVE THIS KID!!! He cracks me up!
